Keep Those Walks Clean
The buildings and grounds department is to be congratulated on the creditable job they do in clearing the campus sidewalks of snow. They usually do this job quick and efficiently,
Monday morning the students coming to their 8 a.m. classes found most of the walks cleared to a passable degree. This is almost always the case, and the students are undoubtedly thankful for this service.
There is one problem concerning winter weather, particularly the ice which frequently covers the walks, to which the men clearing the walks apparently have no solution.
On the north side of many of the buildings on the campus there are ice covered sidewalks.
These walks are dangerous to use, and more than one student has fallen as a result. This condition has existed for the last two or three weeks.
It would seem that there would be a method for removing this ice, either by using salt, or a pick and shovel. Sanding these areas provides temporary safety, but the effects of the sand soon wear off, and the areas become dangerous again.
The students who have to use these ice covered walks daily would be very thankful to the buildings and grounds department if they would remove this hazardous condition. It is hard enough getting to class on time without an obstacle like this to contend with.

What's There To Do-But Study
The tumult and the shouting die away, and the second semester has started. This is the time of year when students work hardest—it's too cold for picnics and beer busts, convertibles or nature studies at Potter Lake.
Early in the semester, students are neither ahead on assignments nor hopelessly buried in paper.
It's a most encouraging time of year for instructors—they begin to think maybe this year all their students will keep up with their work until finals time.
The libraries are full of industrious scholars, and even the people on scholastic probation are thinking in terms of two point averages. Midnight oil, tranquilizers and Benzedrine are consumed at a tremendous rate.
But just wait about six weeks—when the leaves begin to bud, the ground softens and the grass turns green.
Then the whole human race reverts to type—the women's dorms empty like magic at sundown, and the mating cry of dual pipes on convertibles is heard along the campanile drive. It's possible to park without freezing, and who could study on the first night of spring? And beer tastes so much better outside. Just wait about six weeks.
Right now, it's time to trudge through the snow again before the library closes.

Let's Apply Practical Forgiveness
Editor:
Many student-administration disagreements could be solved by practical forgiveness, but how can forgiveness be practical?
Applying forgiveness to the early enrollment fracas, the solution can be practical.
Forgiveness can be given only by a spiritually mature person, and only a spiritually mature person can receive forgiveness in the light of forgiveness and not in the light of "I sure got off easy that time."
Becoming aware of the number of other students of the University, one realizes that despite any desire of the administration to please students and to provide students with a college education efficiently, some students are going to be displeased with procedures. Let's become spiritually mature students and forgive instead of trying to sneak through in some unorthodox manner...the result of which would help ourselves at others' expense.
Some students at KU will undoubtedly do things that they regret later. Forgiving them eliminates some of the anxiety and unpleasantness of the non-forgiving type of punishment...probation.
Who will be the first to lay down their weapons? To put this problem in a position to solve, let's start with individuals of both groups.
If 10,000 people do something wrong, it's still wrong. If one person forgives the 10,000, he's right.

LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS By Dick Bibler
I would like to thank you and your staff, particularly Jeanne Arnold, for the excellent job of reporting events in speech and debate during the past semester.
Orchids To You
Having had some editorial experience I realize full well the problem of space limitations and feel that you have done very well by us in this area.
Editor:
The life of an editor is never an easy one. When you have really done a fine job, invariably someone will be disappointed that you did not give them extra consideration or more favorable attention. Editors cannot afford to let unjustified disappointments on the part of their constituents worry them unduly.
AND NOW, DR. CLODPATE, WHO WILL RELATE HIS EXPERIENCES AMONG THE HEAD SHRINKING NATIVES OF CENTRAL AMERICA!
It has been a pleasure to work with your reporter, and we have been very happy with the publicity we have received in the University Daily Kansan during the past semester.
